Performances
All of my interactive educational performances are 75 min to 120 max in length. I only require 2 to 3 chairs depending upon performance, a small table for literature, 2 bottles of non-carbonated water, and an electrical outlet for a my video camera. They can be staged anywhere and do not require elaborate setup.
- SLaVe: (SEE VIDEO) Touring since 1996, SLaVe is our critically acclaimed educational performance which has traveled across the US, at one point was the keynote presentation at Brown University’s Black History Month Convocation. Two brothers, Malcolm and Michael, are on a talk show trying to rebuild their relationship in light of their mother’s recent death. The interactive play features an Oprah Winfrey show style setting providing interaction between the audience and the characters. This play is very popular during Black History Month. Early booking is strongly advised.
- Interview With A Monster: This educational performance follows the HIV virus as it travels through 7 different people. The audience is able to get inside the mind of this very matter of fact virus as it infects and replicates itself and slowly weakens its hosts. This is a powerful production popular around World AIDS Day and for safer sex educational programs.
- Pages From The Journal: A wealthy Black business man from Chicago finds the journal of a young black man from Chicago’s SouthSide and learns that he has more in common with the young man than he previously thought. This play appeared off-off-Broadway in Feb of 2006. It is great for diversity and leadership programming.
- CHaiNS:(SEE VIDEO) Three men from very different lives talk about being gay and what it means for them. This performance takes a candid look at being openly gay, living the down low lifestyle, misogamy, heterosexism, and race, class and gender as it plays into one’s sexual orientation. The audience meets an openly gay man, a “DL” brotha, and the father of a gay man who was killed in the rural south. The interactive play features an Oprah Winfrey show style setting providing interaction between the audience and the characters. This play is very popular during LGBT History Month and Diversity Week programming. Early booking is advised.
